Two Interiors, One Vision

Two Interiors, One Vision

Two Milanese apartments, two different dimensions, shaped by the same design approach. What brings them together is a language of proportions, materials and details. A vision that adapts to each space without losing its identity, transforming every interior into something unique and deeply connected to the architecture that surrounds it. Project: 02Arch Year: 2026 Site: Milano

In the first apartment, the living area opens into a spacious, light-filled volume. At its centre, a white kitchen with a clean, essential character takes shape as a long, pale monolith, interrupted by a single element of colour: the deep green of Fenix Kitami Green.

This becomes the heart of the kitchen: a deep niche where the base units and backsplash are clad in the same material, creating a bold yet measured contrast with the surrounding white surfaces. Opposite it, the island echoes the same clean geometry, becoming a generous and discreet work surface designed to accompany everyday life.

In the bathrooms, the warmth of oak-effect laminate meets suspended, lightweight volumes. An apparently simple storage unit reveals two different ways of opening: a sliding door and a hinged door allow the space to be organised through different gestures.

In the second apartment, more intimate in scale, the same design finds a new dimension. Here, the architecture itself suggests the defining gesture. At the entrance, an archway leads towards the living area and draws the eye to the kitchen, where a sequence of light-coloured volumes follows the contours of the space.

The curve of the kitchen becomes a reflection of the entrance arch. Two forms that seem distant at first, yet respond to one another, creating a continuous visual rhythm. A light, tactile kitchen, finished with a stone-effect worktop.

The warmth of wood returns in the bathroom through the oak-effect laminate. The suspended unit echoes the language of the first apartment, while introducing a new detail: open shelves ending in a soft curve, once again recalling the geometry of the kitchen.

Reflections of Character

Reflections of Character

There are places designed for a different purpose: to welcome, to represent, to tell a story. This Milan apartment was conceived as a point of reference in the heart of the city, a working base that embraces the language of elegance.

Project: Simona Facchi Architect

Year: 2026

Site: Milano

A subtle thread runs through every room, shaping its identity. It is the aged bronze finish.

Appearing in frames, reflected in mirrors, and integrated into carefully crafted details, it accompanies the eye from one space to the next, becoming the defining feature of the entire project. In the entrance hall, a composition of antique mirrors framed by bronze profiles and crossed by X-shaped details multiplies perspectives and expands the perception of space. The custom storage unit, designed in a warm white lacquer, welcomes guests through a balanced interplay of solids and voids, while the fluted mirror surfaces add depth, texture, and character.

The kitchen opens naturally onto the living area.

A boldly veined marble interacts with the bronze accents and warm white cabinetry, creating an atmosphere that feels both refined and timeless. Towards the living room, the countertop rises to become an integrated bar cabinet: a subtle design gesture that introduces a new function while preserving the harmony of the whole.

At the centre of the room, like a guest from another era, an antique round table takes its place. Its turned legs and sculptural presence bring with them the charm of objects that have gracefully stood the test of time.

The night area adopts a quieter language.

Finishes become lighter, while bronze and mirrors gradually give way to geometry and proportion. What remains is the design itself, the rhythm, and the coherence that connects every room without the need for repetition.

A project composed of details, reflections, and materials in constant dialogue.

Between oak and marble

Between oak and marble

A light-filled penthouse features modern furnishings in natural tones with refined details. The timeless combination of marble and wood is complemented by the classic style of bronze-finished knobs and handles with sinuous lines. A sense of softness is expressed in the rounded edges of the furnishings, the brushed finish of the oak and the light tones of the matt maple.

A kitchen in brushed-stained oak with a Carrara marble worktop dominates the bright living area of a Milanese penthouse. The peninsula unfolds in all its grandeur, interacting with the space in front of it through a rhythmic sequence of recessed doors with push-to-open mechanisms and internal shelves. It houses the hob and is softened by external radiating lines that extend from the Carrara marble worktop onto the fixed side panel in stained oak.

Full-height tall units and parallel base units house spacious drawers, pull-out baskets, shelves and internal drawers: functional elements that alternate to provide optimal storage for goods and accessories, enhanced by semi-circular bronze-finished handles. The composition is completed by two shelves – the lower of which incorporates an LED strip – which run parallel to the freestanding steel fridge.

In the sleeping area, stained oak meets classic style in the master bathroom, featuring drawers with high fronts and pronounced frames, rounded sides and a Carrara marble top with an undermount washbasin. The vintage-style taps echo the retro aesthetic and bronze tones.

The guest bathroom features the rounded shape of the freestanding unit on both sides, paired with a delicate marble with aqua-green veining that occasionally shifts to grey-pink. Bronzed handles are featured on the drawer fronts. In the utility bathroom, a recessed unit with a push-pull door flanked by oak shelves completes

The Archetype of Grey

The Archetype of Grey

A complete renewal, a story of continuity. The Tiziana Fausti store in Bergamo is transformed, finding in a single shade of grey the guiding thread that unites spaces, materials, and functions in a coherent and harmonious language.

Project: Arch. Silvia Guerrini
Year: 2025
Site: Bergamo

A fresh, measured shade of grey, not too dark, becomes the foundation of a sensorial experience where neutrality is a choice, not an absence.
Walls, furnishings, and display totems all take on the same hue, while a soft, high-pile carpet underfoot welcomes each step, creating a tactile contrast to the smooth surfaces of the furniture.

The floor seems to rise upward in some display niches, where the carpet wraps around thick shelves like a tongue extending from below to embrace the space.
Even the display cubes, covered in the same material, are stacked in geometric compositions, shaping visual volumes and new focal points.

In this monochrome setting, the merchandise becomes the true protagonist, vibrant, colorful, luminous.
The project thus becomes a vast neutral container that celebrates the chromatic and material diversity of the products, allowing every detail to emerge.

The same concept extends throughout each area, from the ground floor to the mezzanine and the first-floor corners, in a visual continuum that redefines the store’s identity.

There is also a sustainable, quiet yet tangible dimension: existing furniture was restored, repainted, or covered to reduce waste and enhance what was already there.

An immersive and discreet environment, where one feels as though swimming in a sea of soft grey.
Among the most evocative details, the belt conveyor left intentionally visible on the first floor recalls the behind-the-scenes world the living, operational soul of the space.
And finally, a wall of glass giogali, transparent and interlocked, filters the light with delicacy.

Within this context, a true artistic gesture seals the project and its poetry:
neon writings by artist Marcello Maloberti illuminate some of the windows and the entrance wall, bringing fragments of language and light that complete the experience, transforming the store into a place of fascination and narrative.

Venetian Symphony

by Alice | Oct 2, 2025

Venetian Symphony

A historic Venetian residence meets contemporary design in a symphony where the timeless elegance of wood encounters the modernity of metals. The soul of a city suspended in time permeates the interiors of this home, where opposites converge in perfect harmony.

Project: ARCHITUDE
Year: 2024
Site: Venezia

Light-toned walls and a Venetian terrazzo floor embrace the interiors of this residence, where furnishings with metallic reflections dialogue with the enduring elegance of wood.
The kitchen unfolds around a rounded island, extending along the walls at different heights. Tall cabinets frame the entrance portal, while on the opposite side, the base units seamlessly transition into a bench beneath the window.
The burnished brass lacquer introduces a contemporary note, elevated by its pairing with marble countertops. Drawers and doors equipped with pull-out mechanisms ensure order and functionality.
The metal theme recurs in the passageways and lacquered doors that connect the various spaces.

In the bedroom, a canopy structure with an essential design combines metal with a fluted, thermo-treated wooden headboard. A niche integrated into the wall paneling serves as a minimal bedside element, while the passageways to the walk-in closet blend into the structure, remaining both prominent and discreet. Wood once again takes center stage, with lower drawers and open compartments offering double-height hanging space.

In the bathroom, wood grain finds its fullest expression in the vanity unit with mirrored drawers, topped by a white veined marble countertop that echoes the kitchen. The upper mirror integrates a concealed cabinet, providing storage without sacrificing brightness and essential lines.

Mirrored surfaces, a recurring theme throughout the project, enhance the natural light, from the decorated entryway cabinet fronts to the sliding door leading into the bedroom.
